CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (July 26, 2023) – Emerson today announced that its PACSystems™ and Movicon™ technologies were awarded Most Valuable Product and two gold medals in the Control Engineering 2023 Product of the Year awards. The awards highlight the best new control, instrumentation and automation products as chosen by the publication’s readers based on technology advancement, service to the industry and market impact.
The highly intuitive PACSystems RXi HMI was named MVP since it received more votes than any other product in all categories, and unlike traditional resistive displays, it is designed with projective capacitive touchscreen technology. This meets the needs of the rapidly changing industrial workforce by allowing users to interact with the visual display with 10-point multitouch capabilities like swipe, pinch or zoom, enabling easy operation by a wide range of personnel.
Showing similar innovative advances, the open programming, open communications PACSystems RSTi-EP CPE200 compact controller, the Programmable Automation Controller category gold medal winner, helps original equipment manufacturers meet customer requirements by minimizing the need for specialized software engineering talent.
The software category gold medalist, the Movicon.NExT 4.2 platform, is designed to easily interface with any field device and control or enterprise system, providing local human machine interfaces, supervision and analytics that scale from small IIoT or WebHMI applications on embedded Linux devices to large Windows server systems.
